These dedicated men devoted their time and abilities to helping the students in many ways. Assistant principal Mr. Walter T. Jones secured substitute teachers. Also included in his duties were maintenance of the building and supervision of custodians. When students had problems” with their lockers, they went to Mr. Jones. Organi¬ zation of assembly programs, athletics, and extra-curricular activities comprised the job of Mr. Larry Waddell. In charge of the master schedule and observation of the class room instruction wa s Mr. Robert Croft, who spent many hours on the diffi¬ cult job of arranging teachers ' and stu¬ dents ' schedules so that each could have a viable learning experience. These three men brought their unique skills and willingness to help and encour¬ age the students in all areas of school life. Smiling as his mind drifts off into the Wild blue yonder, Mr. Robert Croft recalls the previous day ' s flying lesson. 10-FACULTY
